Is it really 'unchristian' to resist forced settlement of refugees?

Let us share a trend from Christian Action Network’s Facebook page, where supporters “Like” the things we do and haters bombard us with profanity and/or insults.

When we announced our recent petition drive to keep Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe from settling Syrian refugees in our home state (it’s still open; sign it here), the negative reactions all had a similar tone: that we are “unchristian” for opposing a huge, hasty and very political importation of strangers into our midst from a region known for terrorism and extremist violence.

Here are some choice examples:

• How Christian of you.. WWJTA? (Who would Jesus turn away?).
• No,I won't [sign the petition] you racist, xenophobic, satan worshipers.
• Quote me some Jesus, people. All that is said here is not Jesus, but is fear and hatred.
• Wow. Way to show the compassion that Christ commanded His followers to give to those in need.
• I can almost feel the Jesus! Don't worry this crisis will be over and you can go back to complaining about abortion and homosexuality, two latchkey issues Jesus never spoke of but he did tell us how to treat immigrants.
• How can you claim to be Christian and refuse to minister to those who need your help? Disgusting!

You get the idea. We don’t practice what we preach. We are hypocrites.

Because Christian people strive to be self-aware and mindful of their own sins, that really hurts. On its face, it seems so true! The president of the United States himself even needles us with it, accusing us in public of being unwilling to help suffering women and children.

I sort of see it like this. Out of every 10,000 refugees we take in, this is what we wind up with.

A larger percentage of the people coming in aren't violent, but you get the violent too. And so, this graphic shows us what we wind up with. It's not a joke. It's a real threat.

Islam is 180 degrees opposed to Christianity. It seeks to confuse the Christian playing on their Christianity. We seek to help others. Our instincts are to be somewhat selfless. And so we actually feel guilty of we don't take a chance on helping the oppressed.

Once the "refugees" are here. We have to deal with the violent ones I just covered. Then we also have to deal with the non-violent ones. And their actions are extremely corrosive.

Judeo Christian teachings, symbols, holidays, observances, customs, and everyday life is quickly impacted.

Take a look at the push back to Christianity in the U. S. even at the very low presence of Islamic followers. We can't mention the Christian God in public or at public events. The Jewish/Christian symbols are forbidden in the public square. Businesses are stopping serving bacon / pork.

Our kids are taught about Islam in our public schools. Their holidays and customs are taught when Christ cannot even be mentioned. Role playing has our kids envisioning jihads and other Islamic practices.

So yes Jim, what the Left couldn't do without Islam, it is accomplishing through Islam. The Judeo Christian ethic is on the way out.

With probably 1% of the populace a believer in Islam, this is the damage already. And knowing this, they can't wait to bring more in.

Islam is the third largest faith in the United States, after Christianity and Judaism, representing 0.9% of the population. LINK

Hey...I want some ribs.

Unfortunately it's weekday ribs, the boneless "country" sort and only a few.

I'll holler at you the next time we get the full boat going.

Insh'Allah.

I've sworn off poultry this week until Thursday.

Ribs would be awesome.

When fighting breaks out you don’t scoop up everyone that runs away and bring them to the West

Self preservation is not un Christian.

I’ve challenged some of my left leaning friends and family members to find a Biblical reason why I should let possibly dangerous people into my house where they could harm me and my family.

I have yet to recieve a response, and highly doubt that I will.

Islam is on a quest to convert or kill all Jews and Christians and dominate the earth.

It's been said that, "the truth shall set you free." What you stated above is a truth that must be fully faced and accepted by the western world, if our Judeo-Christian culture is to survive. At this point in world history, it's one of the most important.

Another truth, which is just as important, is that, "liberalism is a mental disorder." People of good conscience and common sense had better come to grips with that truth, as well, because liberals in the west are going to get millions of us killed by appeasing the muslim horde.

Islam isn't just another religion. It commands its followers to exterminate all non-believers and conquer the earth at the point of a sword. Such a system of belief doesn't even qualify as a religion, and should not be recognized as such by modern people.

It needs to be fully eradicated from our country, by whatever means necessary. I hope to see stronger and stronger movement toward that end, over the coming years.

I can’t find fault with any fact written here and I’m grateful Zakeet added Winston Churchill’s thoughts from 1899, which remain accurate today! I can barely attempt to imagine what Sir Winston would think about his beloved country today with the horrid Moslem invasion.

I’m in total agreement with Windflier.

We all know the quoran tells it’s believers to lie to get their way. They lie, so we all know that mohammed lied about our Christian bible. We’re finding elements mentioned in the Christian bible that Jesus is a fact, God is His Father. All the believers in mohammed and their quoran can do is blow up antiquities. Christians don’t do that. We’re encouraged to show Christ’s Way by our words and actions. Our bible doesn’t tell us to kill people who disagree with it. The quoran does tell it’s followers to use terror to kill all Jews and Christians.

1Cor16:22 If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!

This goes for Obama too.

Exactly. Which is why charity needs to be a matter of individual judgment and discernment.

I don't need people (especially government people) being "charitable" with my money, time and security. I'll do it on my own, thanks.

I’ve always found it ironic being called unchristian by non-christians.

Exactly. Never allow non-Christians to interpret Christianity for you. If some leftist nutbag says "oh how unChristian of you" immediately ask them if they are Christian. If they say no, then reply "What the hell would you know about what is or isn't Christian?" and then laugh at them. If they say yes, then state that you are happy to hear that they agree that homosexuality is a grave sin. They will probably balk at this, if not move on to another leftist hot button issue, like sexual promiscuity or abortion, until they do balk, and then when they say "That's BS! Homosexuality/fornication/abortion is not a sin!" or " God forgives us for all that so its ok." just laugh and say "You obviously haven't understood the Bible worth a damn so why would you understand how Jesus wants us to treat Muslim invaders?" and again, laugh at them.

Never let them frame the argument and always laugh at them for being stupid. Basically, treat a leftist like a child ALWAYS.
